Description
In first-century Roman Britain, a Celtic warrior rides out on a deadly mission. A thrilling blend of legend and history, bloody battles and daring deeds by the author of the Whale Road Chronicles.
A priceless relic—a thankless quest—who will make it out alive?
Britannia, 58 AD. Fergus MacAmergin is a man out of place. An Irish Celt, he passes as a Gaul and rides with the Roman cavalry, affirming Nero's control over the province. Fergus dreams of escaping the fetters ofhis birth and living freely as a citizen of Rome.
When Fergus's commander makes a battlefield error, Fergus is blamed. He and his men are given a thankless task: a quest that spells danger, despair, and near-certain death. The mission: to find the Holy Lance, the spear that wounded Christ on the Cross.
The young Tribune Agricola is drawn into the quest, and he and Fergus must overlook their differences to survive. But there are plots and enemies everywhere. And just why is the Holy Lance so key to Roman mastery over Britannia?

Fairly ok but the plot is pretty lame and gets lamer.
B movie stuff where an endless stream of increasingly implausible events wear the listener down and it all becomes a cheap blur, It’s hard to care about what will happen next. What happens next is - just whatever ludicrous junk the author writes down after spinning the ‘implausible plot twist choice wheel’- even if it doesn’t make any sense whatsoever,
The good guys win. Bad guys lose. There is blood.
I tuned out most of the last few hours of the audiobook and shut it off with five minutes remaining. I think the author would be capable of writing a good book. It started out fairly ok. Maybe B-movie stuff just sells better who knows. Kids might like it.
Poor material to work with but Sean Barrett’s narration is good, as always.
